Life is short; your wish list of dream beauty
products, long. And all the ways you can play Little Miss Sunshine? Infinite!
Don’t waste any more time getting ready for the season; we’ve scoured the runways
and streets to bring you our favorite sunny-side-up beauty looks for every
personality.
Festival Gypsy
Why so
serious? It’s festival season! Here’s your chance to let your hair down, take
risks and have some fun with your look. Our beauty go-tos for this one are
glitter, bold color-play and statement accessories! For that perfect festival
makeup look, pack glitter eye shadow on Vaseline layered lids, or use two
bright, contrasting colors to create a dramatic dual-toned effect on your lash
line and under your lids. Instead of going with cliched floral headbands, weave
little flowers into a messy braid, or skip the flora altogether and go for
flash tattoos, instead.
Mermaid Magic
Move over
unicorn –Ariel-style makeup is making a splashing comeback this season. Just
ask Katy Perry, who's launching a mermaid-inspired line for Cover Girl, full of
pastel eye shadow, shimmery highlighters and quirky lip shades. Unless you're
ready to dive into the deep, the all-over aquatic is a bit too much for every day.
We'd suggest going with blue eyeliner and matching eye shadow, or a
complementary pastel. Top it up with highlighter, and ahoy – you're ready to
sail!
Hippie Au
Naturale
'No makeup
makeup', 'dewy' or 'summer glow' – there's many a term for the bare-faced,
glowy poster children of the '70s. But let's face it, the Summer of Love is
long over and none of us have time to lounge around on beaches and cleanse our
chakras all day. What then? Get that bare-faced beauty with a solid BB cream
for sheer coverage, skip the liner for glossy lids and natural, messy eyebrows.
Finish with a subtle, tinted lip balm and nama-slay! See? And you didn't even
have to go to meditation camp.
Monochrome
Muse
This
understated '90s trend makes use of muted, matching palettes and shimmer in
subtle nudes, browns, bronzes and caramels. Our favorite is a versatile
all-over nude that can carry you through every kind of summer engagement with
ease. Top up nude lipstick with a sheath of gloss, lightly strobe your cheeks
with bronzer and pack a shimmery metallic eye shadow on your lids. To set off
smoke alarms in the after hours, you can use a black eyeliner and blend some
black eye shadow into the edges of your lids. Not glam enough? Use a little gel
and finishing spray to slick back your tresses for an effortless wet hair look
to complement your retro chic makeup.
Femme-Tastic
Channel your
flirty, feminine side with crush-worthy corals, pretty pinks and fluttery
lashes. Swipe a bright, summery color on the lips and keep your pout in colorful company with a blush in the same shade family. If you want to make
like the Romantics, you can complement a soft pink lip with a metallic eye shadow. For night-time, switch up the pink for a timeless red on an
otherwise bare face. Use wispy falsies to frame your look and lend it a little
bit of drama.
